Thanks! It's definitely a work in progress.

Thanks! I am glad you are here!

I have seen a KZbinr I watch use this, and it is not what I am looking for. When I talk about attachments, I'm talking about the ones you can add to the front of the Kitchen Aid: the pasta maker, the food processor, etc. That mixer is great but it's for dough products and I want to do more than just make dough.

I'm glad to be back. Thanks for commenting. I am excited about my new planner. Thank you for the advice. I'm still thinking about it.

Thanks for the comment. I won't be able to pay off all of the cards in January-just four out of the five cards. So, in February and March, I would need to make the payments to be completely out of debt. I can see your idea about the no-spend, but I'm not sure how I would put that into videos. It's something to think about. I know I need to do a no-spend for sure.

Thanks for the info. If you watch the video, it speeds up, and you can see little changes. I also do not have the ability to do a voice-over. But for sure will keep that in mind the next time I do another one

Thank you so much. I love that you like my videos.

What is that supposed to mean?

Thank you. I totally agree with big box stores you can get 4 things and easily spend $100. Out of all the readings, videos, and people I have talked to. The same advice I got across the board. The best way to save money is to use what you already have and go into the store with a list and a plan and never go hungry. We try our best to do all 4 but usually having a list and a plan is all we have. Lol, but it has for sure saved me tons and a lot less stressed. I used to prep like crazy. Every single meal was prepped and put into the freezer. These days we just don't have the time to do HUGE prep meals days. It would take me at least two days to get it all done. OR my daughter wouldn't like it.

Moms and MILs can be the best!!!! Especially during the holidays. I'm sorry for your loss. I have some Korean friends and they have cooked for us before and oh my goodness it's good!!!!!! Hopefully, as your family grows, you can bring back some of your mom's food. But buying food that someone else cooked is also a great tradition. :) Thank you for sharing

Thank you so much!! Sometimes it's hard cuz of all I have going on. I sometimes come home from a long and hard day at work. Spend time with my daughter, and get her to bed. Then study for an hour or two, edit and post a video before going to bed, wake up the next day, and do it all over again. I'm glad that you like my budget breakdown.

With the advent book box, I was thinking about dipping my hand into doing KZbin shorts and seeing how I like them. The meat I have to bring it home and store it which I should have room for but I might not. Right now I have probably 50 pounds of frozen tomatoes in my upright freezer and my two freezers with my fridge waiting for me to cook down into tomato sauce and those take up a lot of space. I have never bought large amounts of meat like that. So it will be a learning experience for us. I think I am going to take you all along on that journey :) I'm not sure.

Thanks :)

Thanks for the info. I don't think my paycheck will ever be the same where I can cut them more evenly. Using my paychecks the way I am doing them now I think is the best way for me since I just started getting paid twice a month instead of every week. I don't think I fully understand what you mean by cutting my monthly expenses in half, like my bills or what I use for gas and food? As you can see after bills I'm not left with a whole lot and if I cut those in half I am left with even less money. I am trying to be one month ahead but slowly. When I can I put money in my month-ahead funds. I do get a tax refund for being head of household and claiming my daughter on my taxes but usually that money is used for her birthday, get us through the summer and to pay off any debt that I need to pay off.

@ The method I’m using may not be best, but I make it work. I’m a bi-weekly budgeter, the 2nd half of the month is heavier with larger bills, to make up for it I take the difference from the first half of my pay, so it’s not that painful when paying bills. This also includes my cash envelops, sinking funds and savings, everything is even. Love your channel, keep up with the good content videos. I did stay and watch the entire sinking fund video.

my debt like my cards?

Yes please

Awesome! Thank you!

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Thanks :) I didn't realize how long it would take. Thanks for taking the time to watch my video.

You know that would have been a great idea lol but nope I guess you will have to see when I post it :) but its a thought for future games.

That sounds so yummy!! I don't think my daughter has but I have had it at a restaurant. I cant believe I have never thought to do that at home. Thank you for the idea!

Thank you 😁

Thank You. Yes it is an amazing job, I learn something new every day. Thank you for what you do.

Oh well, that's good to know, thank goodness there was no static. I'm glad that you enjoyed my video. I have learned when I go to the store without a plan I spend more. I have also learned that when I don't meal plan I have more of an urge to get takeout which is extremely expensive these days.

Thank You

Thank You. I for sure was missing it.

Thanks for the encouraging words. Makes me happy. Yes, I very much love my job. I can talk about those kiddos all day if someone lets me. lol. It will also feel good to have a full-time paycheck again.

Glad you liked it, Thanks!

Thank you so much. This is such an encouragement to hear. It made my day <3

Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for always watching. Hope you're enjoying your summer.

Thank you for your input. If you watch my video more you would know that I did. If you don't like how much I talk, you're welcome to not watch and go elsewhere. especially since I'm pretty chatty on my channel :) Have a great day.

Thanks! You should it feels great to have something organized. Keep an eye out for my other videos as I journey along to my ultimate goal.

That's a great idea. When I get my laminator machine I am going to do that.

oh 100% it has for sure helped us to not buy fast food or stare at the fridge or freezer trying to figure out what to make.

Thanks, it felt good to get it done and check that off the list.

hey!!! thanks for always watching.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info. It could be that. I don't have a very good camera but that is a great insight I never even thought about. :)

Thanks and yes very blessed by the people are in my life.

Yay! Thank you!

Thank you, so happy that people are enjoying my videos.

love seeing your comments every Wednesday.

Hello, I watched your videos you're doing a great job. Thanks for watching. Means a lot

Yes! Trying my best :) thanks for stopping by.

Thanks for the visit

Oh, that's a good idea. maybe we will check Dick's sporting goods and see if she likes any of them. I'm so glad I am not the only one spending a lot on backpacks.

Hello and welcome! Thank you so much for subscribing. I would love to share the PDF when I can figure out how. :)

Hello, thanks for the info. I understand about getting prepackaged things but this is what works for our family and the food we eat. My daughter is gluten-free and dairy-free so we eat a lot of fresh foods. and we are about to get TONS of fresh food from our garden. This week is a bit different. The soda and the yogurt are for me because I am a full-time mom, full-time worker, and go to school full time and this is my way of spoiling myself without breaking the bank. My daughter also eats breakfast and lunch at school. I eat leftovers from the dinner before. So really this is all we need. I also am not going to buy food we don't need. So we don't need to double our food for the week because it will go bad before we can eat it. Also, the chips, chewy bars, oranges, and meat sticks are for her snacks at school. So like I said this is what works for us and if I remember correctly we actually came WAY under budget which allowed us to get things that were not food-related for my daughter. SO, in a way, I did double it just in a different way. I am only feeding two people so we don't need as much food for the week. Also, ALL of this food was eaten, the corn chips will last us a couple weeks. Also if I was a mom of 5 my hauls would look WAY different and I have also found ways to make gluten-free and dairy-free meals cheaper than what I was doing because I WAS making 3 meals a day for 7 days straight. I am only making dinner and using leftovers for my lunch so I am being smart with my money and not being wasteful. Thanks for stopping by :)

oh, and I forgot we have some food in bulk and canned food that I canned myself, like green beans and corn, so I don't buy that.

Taking youtube a bit seriously if watching someone's food haul killed you.

@@greenlantern1986 hahaha Oh man I love this response. Wish I had this kind of comeback instead of feeling like I had to explain myself. Thank You for being here :)

Yay! Thank you!

Thanks for the comment. Oh my gosh, my daughter used to eat so many. With her being gluten-free I was buying gluten-free bread every week. and that's not cheap. I used to have to figure out how to pay for the money if I went over my budget. I hate doing that. I sometimes still have to in the past I would use my credit card to buy things in bulk and then get what I needed weekly and that helped but I'm working on not using my card. I don't even take it with me anymore. so it makes me make sure I stay under budget even more. I also take a calculator and if have to pay food tax here so if it has any cent no matter if it's 3.15 or 3.99 I round up to the next whole dollar and that seems to help. thanks for the ASMR that made me laugh and I was hoping that would make someone day hearing that :) yes, I am very grateful for my friends who take her shopping they got plants for me this year for my garden. they couldn't wrap them so I already got them :)
